bts as my favorite jellyfish 🫧
.  . • ☆ . ° .• °:. *₊ ° . ☆.
+ cool jellyfish facts
(another list no one asked for. shark list can be found here)
☆ jin: moon jellyfish
Tumblr media
probably don’t need an explanation for this one, simply for the fact jin in the moon and pretty like jellyfish
moon jellyfish can survive in both warm and cool waters!! they’re very social and travels in groups, also known as ‘smacks’ (that’s so silly). some members of the moon jellyfish species live without brains, ears, hearts, blood, eyes and pretty much anything we’re used to having as humans: they have 3 main elements to their existence, they’re 95% water, a mouth and a digestive system. they have their own version of a nervous system though, and without any lungs they breathe through their membrane
☆ taehyung: upside-down jellyfish
Tumblr media
upside-down jellyfish are hella unique, taehyung is hella unique. basically a perfect match if you ask me
the different colors seem in upside-down jellyfish comes from their intake of algae. aquarists can tell captive jellyfish from wild upside-down jellyfish, the wild jellyfish have more of a muddy brown color where as the ones in the aquarium are usually a blue, black, white, green or purple!!! they’re rarely found alone, and flips upside-down alongside others of its kind. their little oral arms point up to the sun, looking like a little flower!!! :D
☆ yoongi: cannonball jellyfish
Tumblr media
cannonball jellyfish are cute and yoongi is just a cutie kinda guy. i don’t make the rules
they’re carnivorous, eating fish eggs, red drum fish larvae and planktonic larvae of mollusks and snails. they use their little oral arms to move!! when the jellyfish is disturbed, they dive deeper into the water and release toxin-containing mucus! they can sense light gravity and touch. though communication between them isn’t understood really well, sometimes the jellyfish will form larger groups :D they can reproduce both sexually and asexually: they sexually reproduce in the medusa state (what we all commonly know as jellyfish) where they lay eggs that develop into planulae (basically swimming jellyfish larvae)
☆ jungkook: mushroom jellyfish
Tumblr media
i kinda love the the little mushroom mullet jungkook used to have hence he is the mushroom jellyfish
their common name refers to their shape of them in the medusa stage: mushroom cap!!!!! they’re often confused with the canonball jellyfish as they both lack oral arms. the mushroom jellyfish is much flatter, softer and larger as it can grow up to 51cm. mushroom jellyfish survive off plankton parts which are pushed out of their umbrella by the water and caught between their sort of finger like appendages!! they don’t really pose as a stinging threat to humans because of their lack of tentacles. however their stinging cells reside within their little bell :D
☆ hobi: lion’s mane jellyfish
Tumblr media
lion’s mane jellyfish look cool as hell, and hobi is probably one of the coolest people i can think of 🤨
lion’s mama jellyfish use their stinging tentacles to capture and eat fish, zooplankton, sea creatures and other smaller jellyfish. kingfish will hide within the stinging strands and feed on the leftover jellies until they’re big enough to venture out into the ocean. lion’s mane jellyfish can grow up to 120 feet. they don’t actually have a very long lifespan, only living for around a year :( they can have up to 1200 tentacles. they also have neurons, a ring of nerves within their hoods. without an actual brain and eyes they rely on these nerve cells to perceive and respond to threats. they poop out of where they eat, and eat out of where they poop :D
☆ namjoon: portuguese man-of war
Tumblr media Tumblr media
okay so for this one, i watched a long ass video on jellyfish one time and the way they described the portuguese man of war was like kinda super cool and the big boy jellyfish. so to go hand in hand with my choice of shark for namjoon, this one felt fitting
kinda a cheat one because they’re not really jellyfish even if they look very alike. however are featured in jellyfish videos and lists alike so they count on this list too. they’re actually siphonophores, which is essentially a cluster of organisms called polyps that depend on each other for survival!! despite being a slightly scary creature they themselves have predators, (which are super smart). the violet sea slug uses a bubble raft to float close to the surface of the water. they have dark purple undersides which help them camouflage in the darker waters. sea slugs also eat the man-of-war, using a similar strategy, however!! they can also repurpose the stinging cells of their meal for their own self defense!!! the float on the portuguese man-of-war is partially filled with carbon monoxide. and was named after its resemblance to ships :D they also kinda just drift, riding the current with no means of propulsion
☆ jimin: flower hat jellyfish
Tumblr media Tumblr media
flower hat jellyfish are pretty, and so is jimin. need i say more
(again they’re technically not jellyfish despite the name, they’re classified as hydrozoa). flower hat jellyfish usually live close to the sea floor with kelp and sea grass. they’re native to small areas of the western pacific ocean with smaller groups individually scattered elsewhere. they prefers moderate moderate depths and warmer temperatures :D they mainly feed on varieties of small fish, where most will occasionally consume small marine invertebrates which they’ll scoop from the ocean floor!! they’re actually quite powerful predators who don’t have many predators of their own however, they have been known to consume one another :(
okay that’s all thank you for reading !!!!

Slugcat Ocs P2
The Matriarch: You are the Matriarch , an old slugcat by anyone’s standards, but one who’s led their tribe through some of the harshest times imaginable. You seek to make one final push and take back the city atop Dreaming Deeply from the predators, scavengers, and defense sentries so your people can live without fear of the rain. Bring your tribe into war and train a successor in the chance you don’t make it.
Goal: retake the Sleepless City and bring prosperity to your tribe. Additionally teach your successor everything they need to be a better leader than even you were.
Starting area: The Fairweather Plains, a massive sprawling plain tormented by nearly constant rains, your tribe has made a living underground in this place, but you wish to live amongst the clouds once more.
Color: Pale orange with many many scars. You need very little food for a slugcat and even in your old age stand far taller than those around you, tall enough in fact to scare off smaller predators.
Other: You may be able to convince the iterator to join your side and turn the cities defenses against those inhabiting it currently.
The Mariner: You are the Mariner, a purposed organism created by Built Slightly Sideways and tasked with repairing a leak of void fluid in her intake system at the bottom of the lake as well as reinforcing the crumbling rock shelf on which she sits. It’s quite the large task for such a small being. None will thank you for your duty, not your sacrifice, but it must be done nonetheless. Keep your eyes peeled and your tail ready, things are not as they seem in the deep and the waters teem with hungry mouths.
Goal: repair the damage to BSS’ structure and return to her with the good news.
Starting area: The Shallows, a teaming freshwater coral reef dense with sponges and other filterfeeders. Predators here are few and far between, but be thoughtful when sliding into gaps between the coral as Coiling Venipedes are always waiting for another foolish morsel.
Colors: Black and white counter shading, you have water breathing abilities greater than even the rivulet, however you are well and truly a creature of the water and as such leaving the lake for too long will see you dehydrate and eventually die. You’ve been cybernetically augmented with all of the tools you’ll need to fix BSS, including a plasma cutter that can be used to melt through tough metal doors.
Other: you have the ability to send out a sonar ping that highlights the outlines of creatures and structures within a certain radius, this is especially helpful in the deepest darkest reaches of the lake.
The Stray: You are the Stray, you have been following a trail of memories that are both yours and not, they’ve lead you through many dangerous lands and most recently to the base of an Iterators(Applied Blasphemy) structure. Something about it feels familiar to you and your memories tell you to seek out the being inside of it. Follow your fractured thoughts and reunite with a very very old friend.
Goal: Piece together exactly who you once were and have one last conversation with your old friend. Additionally Applied Blasphemy may send you out on some errands, it’s only fair that you pull your weight if you insist on living in their can.
Starting area: Left Leg, one of the main supports of Applied Blasphemy and the one most in need of repairs, you’ve been hibernating in a den inside the leg. Something about this space seems familiar to you.
Color: Gray with lighter gray stripes and the traditional tabby m on your forehead. You’re smaller than most slugcats and can fit into gaps others cannot. Additionally you can somehow read pearls and ancient texts without help, how interesting.
The Botanist : It’s said that in places with high karmic imbalance fauna and flora twist into strange new forms. Of course you care little for the fauna, but the flora… well that merits careful exploration. And perhaps taste testing. Regardless you’ll be sure to bring samples back to your tribe, maybe you’ll even be able to find something to heal your wounded leader.
Goal: you’ve ventured far and farther in search of a cure to the wounds the leader of your tribe sustained defending her people. Your goal is to gather karma flowers and to find the fabled void fruit while avoiding predators and perhaps learning about the history of the land on which you stand.
Starting area: the Hazy spire, this area is just outside of the rains of Speaks Through the Clouds. This area is marked by chilling fogs that make seeing things far away a struggle and provide predators ample hiding places. The ground is slippery and blanketed in dense clumps of moss. In this campaign you’d be exploring the areas around STC and likely venturing into his structure and city .
Color: a dark green slugcat with small white flowers in their fur that bloom when predators are near.
Other: there’s a small chance that during your cycles playing this cat you might wake up at night and be forced to contend with a very different world. Strange beings lurk in the night, but even stranger plants bloom then. You can also craft potions/remedies with various effects from plant parts you store in your satchel, these effects can range from a strong stench that deters lizards to making yourself temporarily poisonous enough that a vulture would drop you, to increased health and movement speed for the cycle at the cost of being tired the next cycle.

Do you mind sharing your weight loss tips? I’ve been struggling to try to lose weight
i am no expert whatsoever but what’s working for me personally is walking/jogging everyday, getting 7-8 hours of sleep a night if i can, eating smaller portions, upping my protein intake so i’m more satiated after meals (i try to eat at least 100g of protein a day, or 30+ grams a meal), and eating less sugar (meaning foods with added/processed sugar). i still have sugar when i want but i don’t go overboard like i used to.
i go for a three mile walk everyday if i can, which takes me about 50 minutes to an hour depending on how fast i’m walking. i’ve also been running periodically during my walks. nothing too intense, just a jog but it gets my heart rate up. if i don’t have time for 3 miles i just do 1 mile. as long as i get my body moving for at least 30 minutes a day i’m good. if you can’t go for walks outside and don’t have access to a treadmill i recommend growwithjo’s walking workouts, she has lots of fun indoor stuff you can do (and you don’t need any equipment either). her workouts have been the only ones i’ve actually enjoyed doing.
i also have an apple watch which helps me track my steps and workouts and that’s been huge for me, it motivates me to close my move ring every single day. any kind of fitness tracker will do. you can just use your phone to track your steps as well. i try to hit 10k steps a day.
the best thing for me was starting out slow. i told myself i would walk 30 minutes everyday for 20 days. when i proved to myself i could do that i then decided to add 30 more minutes to that and take an hour walk everyday. as far as food/drink consumption, i told myself that i would stop going out for coffee so much. now i only go once a week, if that. then i told myself i could eat the foods i wanted, just smaller portions, and i had to supplement more protein. little changes like that have been super helpful for me. i didn’t start all at once, i’ve been doing things gradually and it’s really been helpful. usually i just get overwhelmed every time i try to take control of my health but now i feel like i’m getting the hang of it little by little.
most importantly, be patient with yourself and your body. you might not see any results for a while but don’t give up. i tell myself even if i don’t lose weight, i’m still moving my body every day and that’s what’s most important.

Stockholm Week 9: Booking the Rest of the Weekends!
This week was supposedly a stressful midterm week but thanks to the work I put in last weekend, I had an oddly relaxing week. 
I booked a bunch of flights (hopefully the last) this week too ⸜( ˙ ˘ ˙)⸝♡
My wallet is suffering but I’m brainwashing myself that this is a lifetime opportunity I need to catch. 
3/11 Mon: Ivar Los Park + Italy!
I had the mission of finding the tablecloth my mom bought in Stockholm Stadsmission during her stay. She was sad that she didn’t buy more of the same design since it fit the table size too perfectly. As a good daughter, I decided to do a scavenger hunt for it before it ran out of stock. 
Unfortunately, the ones with the same design were gone when I arrived. Although I failed my mom’s request, my own hunt was successful! I found a skirt and dress that fit perfectly. I couldn’t resist buying them since they were less than $10 each too. 
My Midterm paper for Crime Fiction class was due on Tuesday but I was close to being done due to last weekend’s grind. With light steps, I continued to spend time outside, enjoying the sun. Since I was already in Mariatorget and didn’t want to go home yet, I took a long walk around the Ivar Los Park. 
The park was smaller than I thought. I sat down on a bench for a little while until I got up to walk alongside Monteliusvägen. The clear sky amplified the beauty of the view, lightening up my mood as well. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I tried to capture every moment in my head so that I could look back to these moments when I was exhausted. 
During my 40-minute walk, I discovered a kindergarten, church, ballet school, and Mojang studios (shoutout to Minecraft fans). I shared my happiness with my grandparents in Korea by calling them and chit-chatting for a while. 
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
A few snaps from my point of view 
I walked back home since the park wasn’t too far from my apartment. I noticed that our apartment also had a small garden and walking paths, so I strolled around in the little garden until I was satisfied with the amount of Vitamin D intake. 
For the longest time, something inside me had been bugging me to travel to Amsterdam and see the tulip festival. I tried scheduling times with my friends, but I couldn’t find anyone available during the weekend I was planning to go. 
It was then that I got in touch with my friend from home, who is also studying abroad in Europe. We started talking about our travel plans and scheduling availability. Going to Amsterdam failed again because of our tight schedule, but we managed to find a weekend to visit Italy!!! It didn’t take us long to book our flights and come up with Airbnb lists ( ˃ᴗ˂ ) 
3/12 Tue
In Swedish class, we were assigned random groups to do a team assignment.
Tumblr media
There are too many ways to pronounce words
I don’t know how but dumplings kept coming up in our conversations (we were hungry), and I just had to go grab dumplings after class. 
Tumblr media
These pork dumplings were a bit greasy but they tasted a bit like dim sum and I loved that 
I walked around the vicinity after getting re-energized. More and more flower vendors have been popping up here and there, and I walked by slowly to enjoy the sight and the scent of flowers. 
Tumblr media
Tulips usually aren’t my favorites but the ones here are absolutely gorgeous ✿(′ᵕ′*)
For dinner, I followed a kimchi fried rice recipe with cabbage instead. It was delicious as usual :) 
Tumblr media
I’m running out of menus though ;-; 
3/13 Wed: Productive Day 
Wednesdays without any field studies are arguably the best! 
I slept in and made a sandwich salad combo for brunch. 
Tumblr media
Pesto is always right
I stayed home and worked on the second midterm essay of this week for Glued to the Screen TV Film course. I was more of a test girl than an essay girl but oddly, I enjoyed writing the three essays that are 2.5 pages each. I really think blogging is helping to lower the mental hurdles I have for writing essays. 
After finishing the essays early, I switched the subject and worked on two different group projects. It was a very productive day! 
3/14 Thu: Malta! 
I stayed in the DIS building after the morning class until my late afternoon core class began. I was going to go to one of these recommended study cafes but got too lazy to go out. 
Tumblr media
A map of good places to study! 
I couldn’t get rid of the thought of going to Amsterdam, so I logged into Ryanair again. 
The Ryanair website had an option to select “Anywhere” for the destination. Out of boredom and curiosity, I set the dates to one of my available weekends and scrolled through the possible destinations. 
I found relatively cheap flight options to Hungary, Germany, Latvia, Estonia, Austria, the United Kingdom, Greece, and Malta. Out of those options, Greece and Malta caught my eye. I would’ve loved to go to Santorini but that wasn’t an option. When I searched Malta on Google, I was captivated by the scenery. I LOVE the beach and it happened to be Malta’s specialty. I could feel my lingering desire for Amsterdam finally dissipating as I looked at the pictures of Malta. 
I contemplated for a while, calculating the expenses, and clicked the button to buy the flight ticket. A solo trip to Malta in April is officially confirmed! I’m becoming more and more spontaneous but I don’t hate the change. I’m working on trying out things that I wouldn’t have done before, and this is a step towards my goal. 
For dinner, I made a quick and healthy meal out of oatmeal. I’ve been into oatmeal recipes lately; they are easy and fulfilling! Since oatmeal was healthy, I ate chips to balance out. 
For the rest of the night, I read the second half of The Legacy by Yrsa Sigurðardóttir for the Crime Fiction class tomorrow. 
3/15 Fri
I woke up early around 7 am to finish the book. 
After classes, my friend and I grabbed lunch at a Thai restaurant.
Tumblr media
The pad thai was good but I couldn’t stop comparing it to No Thai
If you’re reading this in Ann Arbor, please get pad thai or drunken noodles or potato curry at No Thai for me. 
Anyway, our lunch date didn’t end there. Yes, we were full after lunch. Yes, we got boba. I have been refraining from getting boba too much because I knew my addiction would kick in again soon enough. But it was Friday and I was productive this week, so I got it as a treat for myself. 
I tried working on homework that evening, but I couldn’t get myself to focus enough to finish it. So Friday night ended up as a self-care night in my bed as well ( * ˘╰╯˘ *)
3/16 Sat: Study Date
On Saturday, I got to sleep in until 11:30 am. I was still in my bed rolling around when my friend asked me if I wanted to come with her to go do work in a cafe. It didn’t take too long to realize that I wouldn’t do any work if I stayed home, so I composed myself and got ready to go out. 
We headed to Gamla Stan but it was packed with even more people than usual. I blame the good weather. 
After failing to find a spot in three different cafes, we moved over to T-Centralen and found a good study place. 
Tumblr media
The cafe is called the Kaferang City - I got Snapple but it was $5.50 ;-;
The music and distant conversations helped me focus and finish my assignments (+ blogging) for the week! 
On the way back home, I stopped at ICA to get groceries. I bought a pack of raw chicken breast for the first time, and it took me TWO hours to cook it + make dinner. My legs hurt by the end but once I tasted my dinner I knew it was worth it!
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
I was so afraid that chicken would be raw so I cut some into thirds, not even halves
When I went back home I was irresistibly drawn to stay horizontal in my bed. I made a good choice to start a new novel but a bad choice to read until 5 am.  
3/17 Sun 
Free time! 
My roommate hasn’t come back from her weekend trip so I had all the space to myself. Moreover, I didn’t have much to do because I did most of it yesterday at the cafe. 
Sooo I basically spent the whole day finishing reading the novel except doing a brief project meeting and submitting finalized homework assignments. 
This week was an opportunity for me to rest peacefully, both mentally and physically. I love traveling but felt that taking a rest was a necessary step for me. 
It has been two months already since I came to Stockholm. Thank you for reading my weekly essays and I promise you that I’ll come back with more stories to tell next week! 
Vi ses,

How can I lose weight without dieting?
Tumblr media
Losing weight without following a traditional diet can be achieved by making sustainable lifestyle changes that promote a healthy and balanced approach to eating and physical activity. Here are some tips to help you lose weight without strict dieting:
Eat Mindfully: Pay attention to what you eat, and savor each bite. Avoid distractions like watching TV or using your phone while eating. Listen to your body’s hunger and fullness cues. Stop eating when you feel satisfied, not overly full.
Choose Nutrient-Dense Foods: Opt for whole, unprocessed foods such as fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, whole grains, and healthy fats. Prioritize nutrient-dense foods that provide essential vitamins and minerals without excess calories.
Portion Control: Be mindful of portion sizes. Use smaller plates to help control portions and avoid overeating. Pay attention to serving sizes listed on food packaging.
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Sometimes, feelings of hunger can be mistaken for dehydration. Limit sugary drinks and opt for water, herbal tea, or other low-calorie beverages.
Regular Physical Activity: Engage in regular exercise, incorporating both cardiovascular activities (like walking, jogging, or cycling) and strength training. Find activities you enjoy to make exercise a sustainable part of your routine.
Get Enough Sleep: Lack of sleep can disrupt hormones related to hunger and stress, potentially leading to weight gain. Aim for 7–9 hours of quality sleep per night.
Stress Management: Chronic stress can contribute to overeating. Practice stress-reducing activities such as meditation, yoga, or deep breathing exercises.
Incorporate Healthy Habits Gradually: Make small, sustainable changes to your lifestyle over time. This can include gradually increasing your vegetable intake or reducing added sugars.
Social Support: Share your goals with friends or family, and consider joining a supportive community or group to stay motivated.
Be Patient and Realistic: Weight loss takes time, and it’s important to set realistic goals. Focus on overall health rather than rapid weight loss.
Fiber-Rich Foods: Include plenty of fiber in your diet by eating foods like whole grains, legumes, fruits, and vegetables. Fiber helps you feel full and satisfied, reducing the likelihood of overeating.
Eat Regularly: Aim for regular, balanced meals and snacks throughout the day. Skipping meals may lead to overeating later on.
Limit Processed Foods: Minimize your intake of highly processed and packaged foods, which often contain added sugars, unhealthy fats, and empty calories.
Healthy Cooking Methods: Choose healthier cooking methods such as baking, grilling, steaming, or sautéing instead of frying. This helps reduce the overall calorie content of your meals.
Stay Consistent: Consistency is key. Stick to your healthy eating and exercise habits even on weekends or during special occasions.
Enjoy Treats in Moderation: Allow yourself occasional treats or indulgences, but practice moderation. You don’t need to eliminate your favorite foods.
Track Your Progress: Keep track of your meals, physical activity, and progress. This can help you stay accountable and identify areas for improvement.
Set Realistic Goals: Set achievable, realistic goals for yourself. Celebrate small victories and use setbacks as opportunities to learn and adjust your approach.
Mindful Eating Practices: Pay attention to hunger and fullness cues. Eat slowly, savoring each bite, and be aware of the taste and texture of your food.
Build Healthy Habits Into Your Routine: Integrate healthy habits into your daily routine, such as taking the stairs, walking more, or preparing meals at home.
Diversify Your Workouts: Keep your exercise routine interesting by incorporating various activities. This can include walking, jogging, cycling, swimming, or trying out different fitness classes.
Hydration Before Meals: Drink a glass of water before meals to help control your appetite. Sometimes, thirst can be mistaken for hunger.
Self-Compassion: Be kind to yourself. Weight loss journeys can have ups and downs, and it’s essential to approach them with self-compassion rather than perfectionism.
Remember, the key is to adopt habits that you can maintain in the long run. Sustainable lifestyle changes are more likely to lead to lasting weight management compared to short-term, restrictive diets. If you have any existing health conditions or concerns, it’s advisable to consult with a healthcare professional before making significant changes to your diet or exercise routine.
P.S: Want to know the best solution to lose weight without leaving your favorite food, just check this out here!

Hey there hope you’re having a great day.
I actually needed some fitness advice.So I’m that anon who had PCOD.A couple weeks ago, I had an appointment and my doctor advised me to get an ultrasound.And we got to know that I’ve officially recovered.So I wanna loose the extra fat and some weight that I have in my body right now. So umm here’s the routine that I’m going for:I’ll go to bed at 10:30 and wake up at 5 in thé morning to go running and do some exercise after that for an hour or so. But I don’t know what to do with my diet.
Im gonna say if you've never gotten up at 5am to exercise, it will be hard to start, tho not impossible. Take it slow, one day at a time.
For the diet, try to eat as many whole foods as possible, limit the amount of processed foods you eat. Eat smaller meals throughout the day if you can, you'll feel more energetic because of it, and it helps boost your metabolism (constant fuel allows the body to burn it optimally, whereas eating one big meal a day does the opposite).
Try to eat 1 serving of protein with every meal, it doesn't have to be much, but something. Greek yogurt is a really good example, it's easy but really high in protein. Beans, lentils, legumes, and meat in general are all really good, healthy sources of proteins & nutrients.
It will be hard at the start, you might be unsure of what to do, but if you take it slowly you will find what works best for you and over time it'll become like second nature to just eat healthy foods. For weight loss, eating slightly less than you burn is the goal. Reduce your carb intake, but don't stop eating them entirely. Carbs are necessary to fuel your body, fruits, vegetables, whole wheat bread are all good choices (bread is heavy in carbs but it's not an evil thing). Eat lots of fibre as well (broccoli has lots,as are the beans/lentils I mentioned earlier)
I'm not a nutritionist, but I hope this general idea is enough to help you in some way, and I wish you luck on your journey <3

!!! this migt help with binging !!!
So I get that you should eat healthy when restricting and counting cals because healthy food usually has less calories so you aren’t as hungry compared to eating chocolate and things like that plus all the nutrition or whatever but once and a while you should give on to some of those cravings because if you ignore them as time goes on cravings for different things will pile on and probably lead you to binge on lots of high cal food and possibly if your really lucky those cravings might go away but that still takes quite a bit of time keep in mind this is only my experience which I don’t have a lot of
So basically what you can do to fit in high cal foods is cut them in to smaller portions and only eat some a day but you can also for example eat fast day one 500cals day two and 800cals for the third then repeat this is what I do because a normal cal intake for a single day is around 2000 for a normal person but in a week ofdoing this diet you would eat only 2600-3100cals. Anyway I hope this helps you guys!

So I’ve decided to not get groceries until tomorrow.
I have enough food left for one maybe two yogurt bowls?
I ate breakfast today but as per usual I have a meeting with some chill people who like to eat and drink while we work.
I like to drink, eating not so much.
Last time I avoided eating just fine, and I limited my alcohol intake.
I did come home and overeat a bit BUT I had low low restricted the previous days and had more than enough cals to fit it in.
Today I don’t want to do that. I have the ingredients for a yogurt bowl. I ate one for breakfast because the thought of it wouldn’t leave my mind and I wanted a clear head for the day. I’ll try to skip lunch. If I eat anything, it’ll probably be a protein bar (which I’d have to go get BUT I live near a convenience store so it’s not too bad.)
Plus everyone always seems to recommend getting breakfast in so, I’ll give it a go today. I’m very busy with all my classes and homework and the meet up.
I didn’t weigh myself this morning, even though I restricted just fine yesterday. I looked very skinny, like the kind where my whole body looks smaller rather than just not bloated, this morning so I didn’t wanna fuck with that good mood. Plus I woke up to an alarm for class so it’s earlier than usual.

During the pandemic, we all were trapped inside our homes and had easy and quick access to leisure and food. This has added some extra pounds, and now that the pandemic is over, we wish to lose these extra pounds hanging. Or you have an essential occasion coming up for which you wish to lose weight in less than a month.
If your clothes from last year don’t fit you anymore, you aren’t alone. We all can easily relate. Now that you’ve finally decided to lose weight, time is not helping.
So, just like many others, you’re also here to find secrets to losing 10kgs in a month without exercising.
How To Lose 10kg In 1 Month Without Exercise
These are excellent methods for losing weight and preventing future weight gain.
Take Time to Chew Your Food
We’re always hurrying to finish our food and return to food. Therefore, our brain doesn’t get enough time to process that our stomach is full. Hence, we eat more than our body needs without even realizing it.
Chewing your food thoroughly gives your brain time to realize your stomach is full. This method leads to smaller portions and decreased food intake. There are many studies to prove that people who eat slowly have relatively lower body mass index (BMI).
Pro Tip: Count how many times you chew each bite, as this strategy will keep your mind busy.
Control Your Portion Size
The best way to do this is to carry a small plate when you take out food to eat. We’re so used to eating on a big plate that we must remember how much we’ve eaten. Smaller plates mean less food, which helps you feel full within this much.
When we use a big plate but take out a small quantity of food, it makes us think that we have not eaten enough and that there’s still space left to fill.
The best way to start practicing this habit is by putting nutrient-dense food in larger quantities and high-caloric food in smaller quantities.
Eat at Home
When you prepare your meals at home, it’s up to you to add as many nutrients to your food as you want. Many believe this is the only way to lose 10kg in less time as you decide what goes in your body.
Studies have proven that people who eat at home more than eat out lose more weight than usual. Stock up on nutrient-dense products and try a few dishes each week.
Eat Plenty of Protein
We all know how incredibly significant protein is for our appetite as it makes us feel full quickly. Not only does it reduce hunger, but you also eat fewer calories than usual. Our hormones, like ghrelin and glucagon-like peptide-1, are affected by protein as they can make you feel less hungry.
Consider boosting the protein amount of your meals if you have a grain-based breakfast. Since breakfast is the first meal of your day, focus on eating a higher amount of protein so you can keep your lunch super light.
Drink More Water

How to Fight Obesity: What Every Parent Needs to Know
Tumblr media
Overview of obesity and its impact
Obesity is a condition in which a person has an excess amount of body fat. It’s often measured using the body mass index (BMI), which takes into account an individual’s weight and height. A BMI of 30 or higher is considered obese.
While it’s natural for everyone to have some body fat, having too much can lead to serious health problems. Obesity is linked to an increased risk of heart disease, stroke, type 2 diabetes, and certain types of cancer. It can also have negative impacts on mental health, including an increased risk of depression and anxiety.
There are many different factors that contribute to obesity. Genetics, lifestyle choices such as diet and physical activity, and environmental factors all play a role. The good news is that there are many strategies that can help prevent and treat obesity. The suggestions can include eating a nutritious diet, exercising, and seeking support from healthcare professionals.
By taking steps to prevent obesity and maintain a healthy weight, we can improve our health and well-being. Don’t be afraid to ask for help if you need it — there are many resources available to support you on your journey toward a healthier lifestyle.
Causes of obesity
Obesity is a complex health issue with many possible causes. Some of the most common causes of obesity include:
Unhealthy diet: Eating too many high-calorie, unhealthy foods can cause weight gain and obesity.
Lack of physical activity: A sedentary lifestyle, with irregular or no regular exercise, can lead to weight gain and obesity.
Genetics: Obesity tends to run in families, and certain genetic factors may increase the risk of developing obesity.
Medical conditions: Certain health conditions, like hypothyroidism and Cushing’s syndrome, can lead to weight gain and obesity.
Medications: Some medications, such as antidepressants and antipsychotics, can cause weight gain as a side effect.
Psychological factors: Emotional eating and stress can contribute to weight gain and obesity.
Socioeconomic factors: Poverty, limited access to healthy food options, and low levels of education may contribute to obesity.
It’s critical to note that obesity often results from a combination of these and other factors. Different people may be affected by different combinations of causes.
Strategies for prevention
Here are some strategies for preventing obesity:
Eat a healthy diet: This means choosing foods rich in nutrients, such as fruits, vegetables, whole grains, lean proteins, and healthy fats. Avoid processed and high-fat foods, and limit your intake of sugary drinks and snacks.
Get regular physical activity: Aim for at least 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity per day, such as brisk walking or cycling. You can also include strength training and other types of exercise to improve your fitness and muscle mass.
Practice portion control: It’s wise to be mindful of how much you eat, especially when it comes to high-calorie or unhealthy foods. Using smaller plates or measuring portions can help you control your intake.
Limit sedentary behaviors: Prolonged periods of sitting, such as watching television or working at a desk, can contribute to weight gain. Try to take breaks to move around, and consider standing or walking during long periods of sedentary activity.
Get enough sleep: Adequate sleep is the key to maintaining a healthy weight. Aim for 7–9 hours of sleep per night, and try to establish a consistent sleep schedule.
Seek support: It can be helpful to have the help of friends, family, or a healthcare professional when trying to prevent or manage obesity. Consider joining a weight loss program or seeking the guidance of a registered dietitian or another healthcare provider.
Healthy eating habits
Healthy eating habits are essential to prevent and reduce obesity. This includes choosing nutrient-dense foods, such as fruits and vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. It is also wise to limit sugar, salt, and unhealthy fats, as well as avoid processed and fast foods. Meal planning and portion control can also help ensure that people get the right amount of calories and nutrients.
Physical activity
Physical activity is an essential component of any weight management program. Regular physical activity can help burn calories and improve overall health. It is recommended that adults get at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity physical activity per week, as well as strength training at least twice per week.
The Role of Parents in Fighting Obesity
Parents have an influential role to play in preventing and reducing obesity. They can help to create a culture of healthy eating by teaching children about the importance of nutritious food and physical activity. They can also provide a supportive environment by setting a suitable example and encouraging healthy lifestyle habits.
Resources and support
There are a number of resources and support networks available to those looking to prevent and reduce obesity in the UAE. These include government initiatives, such as the Abu Dhabi Health and Wellness Program, as well as private health providers, fitness centers, and community organizations.
Conclusion
The fight against obesity is a critical one that requires the efforts of parents, healthcare professionals, and the community at large. As a parent, you have the opportunity to model healthy behaviors and create an environment that supports your child’s efforts to maintain a healthy weight. This may involve making healthy food choices, encouraging physical activity, and being mindful of your child’s overall health and well-being. It’s also critical to recognize that obesity is a complex issue that can be influenced by a range of factors, including genetics, socioeconomic status, and access to healthful options. By staying informed and seeking support when needed, you can help your child develop the skills and habits they need to live a happy and fulfilling life.

Do you know what are tips for weight loss?
Tumblr media
Weight loss can be a challenging journey, but with the right approach, it’s achievable. Here are some tips to help you on your weight loss journey:
Set Realistic Goals: Set achievable and realistic goals for yourself. Aim for gradual, sustainable weight loss rather than rapid, drastic changes.
Balanced Diet: Focus on eating a balanced diet that includes plenty of fruits, vegetables, lean proteins, and whole grains. Limit processed foods, sugary snacks, and high-calorie beverages.
Control Portions: Pay attention to portion sizes. Use smaller plates and avoid eating directly from containers to help control portions.
Stay Hydrated: Drink plenty of water throughout the day. Sometimes thirst can be mistaken for hunger, leading to unnecessary snacking.
Regular Exercise: Incorporate regular physical activity into your routine. Aim for at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity exercise per week, along with strength training exercises at least two days a week.
Find an Activity You Enjoy: Choose activities that you enjoy, whether it’s walking, swimming, cycling, or dancing. This will make it easier to stick with your exercise routine.
Be Mindful of Snacking: Pay attention to mindless eating and emotional eating. Keep healthy snacks on hand, such as nuts, fruits, or yogurt, and avoid keeping unhealthy snacks within easy reach.
Monitor Your Progress: Keep track of your food intake, exercise routine, and progress toward your goals. This can help you stay accountable and make adjustments as needed.
Get Adequate Sleep: Aim for 7–9 hours of quality sleep each night. Poor sleep can disrupt hunger hormones and lead to overeating.
Manage Stress: Find healthy ways to cope with stress, such as practicing relaxation techniques, exercising, or spending time with loved ones. Stress eating can sabotage weight loss efforts.
Seek Support: Surround yourself with supportive friends and family members who can encourage and motivate you on your weight loss journey. Consider joining a support group or working with a healthcare professional or registered dietitian for additional guidance and accountability.
Limit Added Sugars and Refined Carbohydrates: Cut back on foods and beverages high in added sugars, such as soda, candy, and baked goods. Also, reduce your intake of refined carbohydrates like white bread, pasta, and rice, which can spike blood sugar levels and lead to cravings.
Eat Mindfully: Practice mindful eating by paying attention to your body’s hunger and fullness cues. Slow down while eating, savor each bite, and avoid distractions like watching TV or using electronic devices.
Plan and Prepare Meals: Plan your meals ahead of time and prepare healthy snacks and ingredients in advance. This can help you make healthier choices and avoid impulsive, unhealthy options.
Incorporate More Fiber: Include plenty of high-fiber foods in your diet, such as fruits, vegetables, legumes, and whole grains. Fiber helps you feel full and satisfied, which can prevent overeating.
Stay Consistent: Stick to your weight loss plan consistently, even on weekends and holidays. Consistency is key to long-term success.
Be Flexible: While it’s essential to have a plan, it’s also important to be flexible and adaptable. If you have a setback or indulge in a high-calorie meal, don’t dwell on it. Instead, refocus on your goals and get back on track.
Celebrate Non-Scale Victories: Don’t solely rely on the scale to measure your progress. Celebrate other achievements, such as increased energy levels, improved mood, and clothes fitting better.
Stay Hydrated with Water-Rich Foods: In addition to drinking water, incorporate water-rich foods like cucumbers, watermelon, and celery into your diet. These foods are hydrating and low in calories, helping you feel full without consuming excess calories.
Consider Professional Help if Needed: If you’re struggling to lose weight despite your best efforts, consider seeking guidance from a healthcare professional, such as a registered dietitian or doctor. They can provide personalized recommendations and support tailored to your needs.
By incorporating these tips into your weight loss journey, you can increase your chances of success and achieve your goals in a healthy and sustainable manner.
Remember, weight loss is a gradual process, and it’s essential to be patient and kind to yourself along the way. Focus on making sustainable lifestyle changes rather than quick fixes, and celebrate your progress, no matter how small.

When you are craving an unhealthy food, or just feel like snacking, close your eyes and imagine the way you looked when you were at your ideal weight. This process helps you remember why you want to lose the weight in the first place. Drink water to help you lose weight. If you sit down to a meal and are famished, it's more likely you will eat more, but simply having a glass of water before a meal will help with that. Sometimes our body will tell you it's thirsty, but you may think it's telling you it's hungry. Next time you're feeling hungry, try a glass of water. One way to lose weight is to simply stay away from your trigger foods. Most of us have foods that we cannot stop eating once we start. Remove Tip Calculator from your home and only eat them now and then. Better yet, eat them when you are around other people, so that you are not tempted to overindulge. Hunger makes it hard to stick to your weight loss goals. A simple way to help you feel less hungry during the day is to eat smaller but more frequent meals. Doing so keeps your hunger in check and under control. This goes a long way towards helping you to eat less and makes weight loss easier to accomplish. Playing with your children will be a huge aid in your weight-loss process. Children love to run around and be active while outside. Play tag with them, go on a bike ride or take a walk. They will love doing these things with you, and your body will appreciate the exercise! Eat frequently during the day but consume smaller amounts of healthier food. Eating healthy foods frequently, can keep you feeling full and satisfied. This will help you to resist the, sometimes, overwhelming temptation to grab that cupcake at the office snack bar. Just make sure your choices are always healthy ones. Some people find that once they lower their carbohydrate intake, they start to lose weight. Carbs really do nothing good for your body, are filled with a lot of processed ingredients, and can be addicting. The more carbs you eat, the more carbs your body needs, and the more weight you put on. Don't use huge amounts of condiments on your food. Most restaurants off a wide selection of condiments to accompany your meal including sauces, dressings, spreads and dips. Unfortunately, these condiments are usually loaded with fat, salt and sugar: three nutrients which can be detrimental to your health when taken in large quantities. If you have a riding lawn mower, consider buying or trading it in for a push mower. If you push mow your yard, you will be burning many calories that can result in weight loss. While push mowing, you are walking and pushing a mower, both resulting in calories being burned. It can be great exercise for people who don't enjoy traditional exercise. Using the tips you have learned here can help you achieve the results you are looking for. If you see the results, you will be more likely to stay on top of it. Try out many different weight loss strategies to find the one which works best for your specific situation. Use Tip Calculator as a foundation to build on.
